Hi all,

            First of all I am sorry it has been such a longtime since I last visited, I hope all of you are well.  I have been busy looking after our new arrival Melissa infact she is now ten weeks old already and I am enjoying every minute with her.

I often find it hard to meet Native English people in Istanbul and often would just like to meet up sometimes with someone for a coffee or tea, I have my Turkish friends and a limited number of English friends living in Istanbul but usually they are all very busy.  As I am going to be the dad that looks after the baby when my wife returns to work there will be less time to think about this. 

Bye for now Rich   

Good to hear from you again Richard and that you are enjoying life with your daughter and Nesrin.

 Thanks John, Where is everyone?

They must be busy doing other things Richard but it is always nice to hear how you are getting on. Makes a change from some of the doom and gloom stories you get on here.  Lovely pictures in your profile as well.

Richhhhhhhhhhhhhh   Good to hear from you and best wishes to you and your family
